SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on formatting subscripts in mathematical expressions using LaTeX, specifically addressing the issue of subscripts appearing concatenated with their variables. Peter seeks a solution for properly displaying the variables f and g with a subscript P that visually separates them. Mark suggests using the LaTeX command f_{\Large_P} to achieve the desired formatting. This method effectively shifts the letter P lower, ensuring clarity in mathematical notation.

PREREQUISITES
  • Familiarity with LaTeX typesetting
  • Understanding of mathematical notation and subscripts
  • Basic knowledge of category theory and functors
  • Experience with formatting in online forums or academic papers
NEXT STEPS

I have just finished a post on category theory and functors in the Linear and Abstract Algebra Forum ... post #3 in the thread ...Thread: https://mathhelpboards.com/linear-abstract-algebra-14/functor-any-category-preorder-category-awodey-exercise-8-chapter-1-a-24883.htmlI wanted to use f subscript P and g subscript P in the text ... but the letter P looks as if it is concatenated with f and g ... how do I get these variables to look as if they are genuinely subscripted ...The variables (actually arrows) look like $$f_P$$ and $$g_P$$ ... basically I would like to shift the letter P lower ...

Any ideas ...

Try something like:

f_{\Large_P}

to get:

$$f_{\Large_P}$$

Thanks for the help, Mark ...
